Michael, yes Sir it is NJ compliant as Pump Shotguns do not carry the same restrictions as Semi-Auto Shotguns. Details under Shotguns here : https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/new_jersey_restrictions.pdf

I didn't see in the description anything about choke tube availability. Does it come with any tubes and what brand choke tubes does it accept?

Charles, this model uses Beretta/Benelli® Mobil Style Choke Tubes ((1) Improved Cylinder choke included). Modified and Full Chokes can be found here : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/90444/beretta+mobil+ct+12+md -------------------------- https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/90442/beretta+mobil+ct+12+full

Charles, it takes Beretta/Benelli® Mobil Style Choke Tubes and comes with 1 cylinder choke. Have a great day!

Can this shotgun be used without causing damage if the provided Beretta/Benelli choke is removed and shot without any choke at all?

James, no Sir. Without the choke installed the threads would be exposed and subject to damage Sir. The Cylinder Choke or Modified choke should be used with the Cylinder choke providing best accuracy for standard Foster Type Slugs. Cheers and stay safe!

James, Never shoot choke barrels without using choke tubes. Shooting without choke tubes is very dangerous as debris could be trapped by the threads and create barrel obstructions. It may also cause erratic shot pattern and can damage the barrel's internal thread irreparably.

You should not shoot slugs—or any other shot—through your barrel without a choke in place, since there is a very real possibility that you will damage the threading.

What style of choke comes with this shotgun?

James, included is (1) Beretta®/Benelli® Mobil thread Cylinder choke tube. Compatible Modified and Full Choke here : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/712000385/carl+choke+tube+12ga+mod+ber+ben ------------- https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/712000387/carl+choke+tube+12ga+full+ber+ben

This piece of junk won't chamber a shell. Stays stuck in the magazine tube. Snap caps, slugs, buckshot...2 3/4 and 3". All stay stuck. Yes, I've cleaned and lubed the hell out of it. I don't want to go through the hassle of returning it as I've read on forums that some other Tristar shotguns share the same problem. I'm worried about getting another lemon. Fires ok as a single shot.
